The Rev. Donald Anderson, executive minister of the Rhode Island State Council of Churches, is taking a three-month sabbatical to continue to transition to being a woman, council president Chontell Washington announced today in a news release

Anderson, who has been executive minister of the council, which is made up of mainline Protestant denominations, informed the council Governing Board last fall that she is transgender and is transitioning.
Congratulations!

She is one of a growing number of trans women in the ministry. I have a friend who is the parish priest of an Episcopal priest of a parish here in Connecticut and two trans men who are ministers.
